Recent years have seen a rapid reduction in the intrinsic loss of nanomechanical resonators (i.e., chip-scale mechanical oscillators). As a result, these devices become increasingly sensitive to the friction exerted by smallest amounts of…
We investigate the tensile stress in freely suspended nanomechanical string resonators, and observe a material-independent dependence on the resonator length. We compare strongly stressed sting resonators fabricated from four different…
We perform classical molecular dynamics to investigate the effects of mechanical strain on single-layer black phosphorus nanoresonators at different temperatures. We find that the resonant frequency is highly anisotropic in black phosphorus…
The quality factor of a mechanical resonator is an important figure of merit for various sensing applications and for observing quantum behavior. Here, we demonstrate a technique to push the quality factor of a micro-mechanical resonator…
Resonance properties of nanomechanical resonators based on doubly clamped silicon nanowires, fabricated from silicon-on-insulator and coated with a thin layer of aluminum, were experimentally investigated. Resonance frequencies of the…
We investigate the dynamics of mechanical resonators subject to excitations comprising of an oscillating or harmonic part, whose amplitude decays exponentially in time. We call these complex frequency excitations and show that the resulting…
This report presents the realization and characterization of a robust composite resonator i.e. high overtone bulk acoustic wave resonator (HBAR) and the changes happening to the resonance peaks once it undergoes mass loading which has got…
Nanomechanical resonators have recently been highlighted because of their remarkable ability to perform the sensing and detection. Since the nanomechanical resonators are characterized by large surface-to-volume ratio, it is implied that…
High-quality-factor ($Q$) mechanical resonators are essential components for precise sensing and control of mechanical motion at a quantum level. While amorphous materials such as SiN have been widely used in high-$Q$ mechanical resonators…
Molecular dynamics simulations are performed to study graphene-based torsional mechanical resonators. The quality factor is calculated by $Q_{F}=\omega\tau/2\pi$, where the frequency $\omega$ and life time $\tau$ are obtained from the…
Carbon nanotube mechanical resonators have attracted considerable interest because of their small mass, the high quality of their surface, and the pristine electronic states they host. However, their small dimensions result in fragile…
We describe the measurement and modeling of amplitude noise and phase noise in ultra-high Q nanomechanical resonators made from stoichiometric silicon nitride. With quality factors exceeding 2 million, the resonators' noise performance is…
Nano electromechanical systems are considered as ultra sensitive devices for mass and force detection. Capacitive actuation is widely used in these devices but is known to degrade the quality factor of the resonator due to DC electrostatic…
Self-similar structures occur naturally and have been employed to engineer exotic physical properties. Here we show that acoustic modes of a fractal-like system of tensioned strings can display increased mechanical quality factors due to…
The quality factor ($Q$ factor) of nanomechanical resonators is influenced by geometry and stress, a phenomenon called dissipation dilution. Studies have explored maximizing this effect, leading to softly-clamped resonator designs. This…

I study dephasing of an underdamped nanomechanical resonator subject to random mass loading of small particles. I present a frequency noise model which describes dephasing due to attachment and detachment of particles at random points and…
Surface roughness influences significantly the quality factor of high frequency nanoresonators for large frequency - relaxation times within the non-Newtonian regime, where a purely elastic dynamics develops. It is shown that the influence…
